We had eight people last month. :encouragement:

All welcome. Good beers. Informal. Easy access from J3 and J4 of the M5.

Jeez, you guys are a long way from the open sea! Are you mostly dinghy-sailors on lakes, or temporarily frustrated land-locked deep-sea men?

One keeps a yacht on the East Coast, others in Plymouth and the Solent. Mine is in Falmouth. Some are trailer sailors. I'd dare to suggest that we do more sailing than a good many people who live a handful of miles from the coast.

 

[Greenheart]

More than I, little doubt. Enjoy your meeting. :encouragement:

Don't remind me! At least with a trailer sailer I have a choice of sea....
However, it would be nice to say "I'm just popping to the boat" and not mean "I'm going to a pig shed"

No where in the UK is far from the sea. Used to live in Halesowen and the bulls head at Lye was my local.

Now I live 600 Km from my boat but use it more than the Durban locals as I stay on it for 3 weeks every 2 months.

If I ever get back to the UK again I would stay with in brother so if there is a meet while I an around I would pay you a visit come.

Have a good meet
